Equilibrium

In this section you will be assessed on your ability to:
4.22 understand that some reactions are reversible and are indicated by the symbol ⇌ in equations

4.24 understand the concept of dynamic equilibrium
4.25 predict the effects of changing the pressure and temperature on the equilibrium position in reversible reactions.
